There are a couple threads running about valve adjustment right now & I could have stuck this in one of those but it deserves separate billing..

I saw in one of the other thread a comment that really surprised me... So I'm throwing this out there..

What do you consider the proper amount of drag on a feeler gauge when setting valves.. Should it be a light pull or moderately heavy?

Should you be able to force a .002 thicker gauge through the gap...

What are your thoughts?
